"How many subordinates?" Hatake Maoso didn't respond immediately.
Orochimaru took a deep breath and said, "You said, if there are more of these subordinates, and put them in the village …"
"Hiss!" Hatake Maoso finally reacted. He understood what Orochimaru was trying to say. One Uchiha Chen was enough to deal with them. If he had a few more of them under his command, then Konoha wouldn't be able to stop him at all. Even worse, Uchiha Chen might even take over Konoha's village.
Thinking of this, the cold sweat on Hatake Maoso's forehead flowed down. "No, I can't do this."
Orochimaru regretted inviting him to Konoha without knowing the details of Uchiha Chen. Just as he was about to step forward and ask, he seemed to have thought of something. Suddenly, Orochimaru saw Hatake Maoso smiling, then slowly stopped, and even took a step back and nodded at Orochimaru.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Hatake Maoso's different expression, Orochimaru was a little confused.
Hatake Maoso smiled and didn't answer. Instead, he looked at Uchiha Chen and said with a kind face, "Konan -san, do you want to go with Chen -san?"
Orochimaru was a little confused. Obviously, the fire is about to burn his eyebrows, but he's still talking with others? However, as a ninja, he didn't show it, but stood in place, waiting for Hatake Maoso to give him a reasonable explanation later.
"No, it's not like that." Konan shook her head and said, "I'm going to Amegakure to do something, so I won't be going with Chen for the time being."
"Is that so?" Hatake Maoso nodded thoughtfully. He thought for a while, then took out a token and handed it to Konan, "Since Konan -san has something to do, I won't ask you to stay. However, Chen -san's friend is naturally a friend of Konoha. This is my token. If you need it after arriving at Amegakure, you can give it to Jiraiya, Konoha's commander in Amegakure. I believe this may be able to help you."
"Jiraiya … Sensei?" Konan took the token handed over by Hatake Maoso and muttered to herself, then raised her head and thanked Hatake Maoso, "In that case, thank you."
"Master, I'll take my leave first." Xiao Nan placed the token into her sleeve and nodded at Shen. There's no time to lose. She doesn't know what's going on in Amegakure. She must rush there as soon as possible.
"Be careful. You know what to do if something happens."
"Yes." Konan nodded and took one last look at Uchiha Chen. Suddenly, a pair of paper wings stretched out from her back. Konan swallowed a Soldier Grain Ball, flapped her wings, and took off. Not long after, she disappeared into the sky, leaving only a few pieces of paper on the ground.
Uchiha Chen sighed and turned to look at Hatake Matsuo, "What's the situation now? Can we leave now? "
"It's still in the process of integration, but it's almost done. We'll be able to set off in a while."
"Alright, call me when you're done." Chen nodded and sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.
He did not have to wait for long. Around ten minutes later, Shen was woken up.
"Can we set off already?"
"Yes." Nara Shikakubo bowed and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. Now that everyone has been integrated, we can set off at any time."
"Then let's go." Uchiha Chen opened his eyes, and a light flashed in his eyes. Finally, he was about to reach Konoha. After coming to this world for so long, the wish that had been buried in his heart was about to come true.
He didn't know why, but ever since he became stronger, his calm state of mind had a slight ripple. That was something that only happened on the night when Ino handed him over to Shen.
…
Since they were still at the border of the Land of Fire, they couldn't rule out the possibility of enemy ninjas appearing. Coupled with the fact that there were still wounded in their team, their speed wasn't very fast. But even so, their speed wasn't something that ordinary people could keep up with.
Kikyo Town was originally on the border of the Land of Fire, and it wasn't particularly far from Konoha. If it was an ordinary person, it might take a long time to get there. After all, it was a time of war, and all kinds of monsters and monsters were popping up. Many bandits and rebellious ninjas were also taking advantage of this time when the villages couldn't even take care of themselves and began to wantonly slaughter the civilians for wealth.
However, all the people present were ninjas, and they seemed to know that this was a large force of Konoha. Along the way, no one came to disturb them. After a day and a night, the group arrived at the gate of Konoha.
"Finally, we're back." Shikaku Nara stood in front of Konoha's gate and couldn't help but sigh. In this war, not only other countries, but Konoha also suffered heavy casualties. How many of their ninja companions who went out with them returned with only cold corpses?
How many of their brothers who rushed to the battlefield with them didn't even have their corpses found? Looking at the ninjas behind Nara Shikaku, which one of them wasn't scarred? Which one of them didn't resolutely go to the battlefield to maintain the stability of Konoha?
Don't they want to live a stable life at home? Didn't they want to eat rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea with their families?
Yes, they all want to. But what can they do? When the enemy invaded, if no one stood up, could they bear to watch their home, their loved ones, and their friends be tortured by the enemy?
War is always cruel, so they stood up, they blocked the first line of artillery fire, and used their bodies to create an indestructible fortress for Konoha. They are heroes! They are the heroes of Konoha!
At the gate of Konoha, a welcoming ceremony was already prepared. For this ceremony, the Second Hokage came out of his seclusion to preside over the overall situation.
The Second Hokage stood at the forefront, followed by the ninjas who stayed in Konoha, and then the civilians who held flowers and cheered. When the news of victory came back, they began to prepare the welcoming ceremony early, in order to let the heroes of Konoha feel the treatment that heroes deserve.
"How is it, Chen -san? Are you excited?" Nara Shikaku's mood was surging, and he walked to the back and smiled at Uchiha Chen.
